Red Kite gracefully in flight against the perfect blue sky of a Welsh summers day. Red Kites are striking to view in flight because of their distinctive forked tail and beautiful markings against vivid chestnut red colouring. After many conservation efforts, they are now seen often in Wales, gently circling in the updrafts.
